Mr. Jackson took the 8th grade class on
field trip. While taking attendance, he
noticed there were 51 boy and 21 girls on
the trip. Write the ratio of boys to girls, as a
fraction in simplest terms

Answers

Answer:

17/7

Step-by-step explanation:

the ratio would be 51/21 then to simplify divide both numbers by 3 to get 17/7

Hi there! :)

Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\frac{17}{7} }[/tex]

Given ratio of 51 boys to 21 girls:

Write as a ratio:

[tex]51 : 21[/tex]

Divide both terms by GCF, or 3:

[tex]\frac{51}{3} : \frac{21}{3}[/tex]

[tex]17 : 7[/tex] or [tex]\frac{17}{7}[/tex]

Therefore, the ratio is 17 boys to 7 girls, or   [tex]\boxed {\frac{17}{7}}[/tex]

David is making rice for his guests based on a recipe that requires rice, water, and a special blend of spice,
where the rice-to-spice ratio is 15 : 1. He currently has 40 grams of the spice blend, and he can go buy
more if necessary. He wants to make 10 servings, where each serving has 75 grams of rice. Overall, David
spends 4.50 dollars on rice.
How many servings can David make with the current amount of spice he has?​

Answers

Answer:

8 servings of rice

Step-by-step explanation:

8 servings of rice

the rice-to-spice ratio is 15:1 so 75 grams is 5 times more making it 75:5 each serving. 5 grams of spice is in each serving so divide 40 grams (which is the amount of spice he has) with the 5 grams of spice each serving. After you’ve done that, you’ll see you got 8 as your number, saying that it will take 8 servings of rice to finish the grams of spice.

Papa Bear ate 1/2 of a pie. Mama Benr ate 1/2 of what was left Baby Bear ate 1/2 of what
was left after Mama Bear finished.
3) What fractional part of the pie did Mama Bear eat?
4) What fractional part of the pie was left for Goldilocks?

Answers

Answer:

1/4 was eaten by mama and Baby also ate 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

goldilocks got 0/4

if papa ate half and baby and mama each ate 1/4 they equal up to 2/4 which is 1/2

papa ate 1/2 and 1/2+1/2=1

Mama bear ate (1/4)a part of pie and the (1/8) fractional part was left for Goldilocks.

What is the fraction?

The fraction is a rational number that simply divides two numbers and is written in the form a/b where a is called the numerator and b is called the denominator.

Let the full part of the pie is a.

Papa bear ate 1/2 part of the pie.

Then papa bear ate = (1/2)a

rest of the pie is= a- (1/2)a= (1/2)a

Mama bear ate (1/2) of the rest of the pie.

so mama bear ate = (1/2)(1/2)a= (1/4)a part of pie
rest of pie after mama bear ate = (1/2)a- (1/4)a= (1/4)a

Then baby bear ate (1/2) of the rest of the pie.

so baby bear ate = (1/2)(1/4)a= (1/8)a part of pie
rest of pie after baby bear ate = (1/4)a- (1/8)a= (1/8)

The rest of the part was left for GoldLiocks.

Therefore mama bear ate (1/4)a part of pie and the (1/8) fractional part was left for Goldilocks.

Which of the following shows the division problem below in synthetic division

5x2 + 9x-6
X + 2
A. -259-6
B. 259
6
C. 2 5 9.6
O D.
D. -25 96​

Answers

Answer:

Option (A),

    _____________

-2 |      5     9     -6

Step-by-step explanation:

Division is an algorithm that is used to find the factors of a number. One method of dividing polynomials is through a process of Synthetic division. Synthetic division for polynomials requires that the divisor (an expression that one uses to divide the polynomial) is linear. One will then set the divisor equal to zero and solve for the unknown such as the following,

x + 2 = 0

x = -2

Under the division sign, one will put all of the coefficients of the divided (the number that will be divided) in order of degree. The coefficient of the term with the highest degree is on the leftmost side, the lowest degree is the rightmost. Therefore the problem would appear as the following,

[tex]\frac{5x^2+9x-6}{x+2}[/tex]

= ([tex]5x^2+9x-6[/tex]) ÷ ([tex]x+2[/tex])

    _____________

-2 |      5     9     -6

Therefore, the correct choice is option (A).

Three-fourths of the water leaked out of a full aquarium tank. and 15 gallons of
water was left. After the leak was fixed, 10 gallons of water was added to the
aquarium tank.
4) How many gallons of water can the aquarium tank hold when it is full?
5) How full was the aquarium tank after the 10 gallons of water was added?
6) How much more water would have to be added to fill the aquarium tank?

Answers

Answer: 4) 60 gallons    5) 25 gallons    6) 35 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

If three-fourths of the water in the tank leaked out of the full aquarium tank then one-fourths will be left.

so if the leftover was 15 gallons then 1/4 of a number has to equal 15 gallons.

We could represent that by the equation.

1/4 * x = 15

0.25x = 15

x=  60    

4) which means the aquarium tank can hold 60 gallons of water when it is full.

5) If 15 gallons of water was left after the leaking and then they added 10 more gallons of water then 15 + 10 = 25   which means the aquarium was 25 gallon full.

6) If they are 25 gallons in the water now and we need to add some amount of water to get to 60 gallons of water then we will subtract  25 from 60 find how much water needs to be added.

So  60 -25 = 35   which means 35  gallons needs to be added.  

Yup the guy above is right

Find the lateral area of this cone

Answers

Answer: 40.0

Work Shown:

r = 3 is the radius

h = 3 is the height

LA = lateral area of the cone

LA = pi*r*sqrt(r^2 + h^2)

LA = pi*3*sqrt(3^2+3^2)

LA = pi*3*sqrt(18)

LA = pi*3*3*sqrt(2)

LA = 9*sqrt(2)*pi .... exact area in terms of pi

LA = 39.9859464434252 ... approximate area

LA = 40.0 ......... rounding to nearest tenth

I used my calculator's stored version of pi to get the approximate answer.

Note how the slant height L = sqrt(r^2+h^2) which can be shown through the pythagorean theorem.

R=3 is the radius h= 3 is the height

1.) Write 7/25 as a percent and decimal.

Answers

Answer:

Below

Step-by-step explanation:

● 7/25

Let' write this fraction as a decimal then convert it to a percentage

● 7/25 = 0.28

To get a percentage multiply it by 10

● 0.28 × 100

● 28 %

Answer:

0.28 or 28 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

1)The easiest way to solve this is with a calculator. Just enter in 7/25, and you get 0.28.

2) Now, 0.28 is out of 1, but we also want a percent, so you have to change it to make it out of 100. You do this by multiplying by 100, and to do that you simply move the decimal place 2 places back.

3) You would then get 28, so 28 percent.

Extra) You can also do the part I did with a calculator without, but it is much more time consuming. After you get 0.28, you would go through the steps listed above.

The distribution of city championship wins shared by 3 HS girls basketball teams in Clayton, MO is as follows: Rockefeller HS 12, Clayton West 20, Clayton South 7. Rounded to the nearest 10%, approximately what percentage of the total wins does each team have?

Answers

Answer:

Rockefeller HS = 31%

Clayton West = 51%

Clayton South = 18%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following:

Championship wins shared by 3 basketball teams :

Rockefeller HS = 12

Clayton West = 20

Clayton South = 7

Percentage of total wins each team has :

Total number of wins = (12 + 20 + 7) = 39 wins

Percentage wins :

[(Number of wins per team) / total number of wins)] × 100

Rockefeller HS:

(12 / 39) * 100 = 30.769% = 31%

Clayton West :

(20/39) * 100 = 51.28% = 51%

Clayton South:

(7/39) * 100 = 17.948% = 18%

The admission fee at a carnival fair is $4.50 for children
and $8.00 for adults. One day, 2200 people attended the fair
and $5050 was collected. How many children and how many
adults attended?
Lets say:
c= number of children
a= number of adults

Answers

Answer:

Adult=1,385.71

Children=814.29

Approximately

Adult=1386

Children=814

Step-by-step explanation:

c= number of children

a= number of adults

Admission fee for children=$4.50

Admission fee for adults=$8.00

Total attendees=2200

Total amount realized=$5050

We need two equations to solve the two unknowns

c + a=2200 (1)

4.50c + 8.00a=5,050 (2)

From (1)

c + a=2200

c=2200 - a

Substitute c=2200 - a into (2)

4.50c + 8.00a=5,050

4.50(2200 - a) + 8.00a=5050

9900 - 4.50a +8.00a=5050

Collect like terms

9900-5050= -4.50a+8.00a

4,850=3.5a

Divide both sides by 3.5

1,385.71=a

Substitute a=1,385,71 into (1)

c + a=2200

c+1385.71=2200

c=2200-1385.71

=814.29

c=814.29

12z + 120 = 180

60 = 12z

z = 5

5 x 8 = 40 + 90 = 130°

Answer:

∠MON = 130º

Step-by-step explanation:

∠LON = ∠LOM + ∠MON

∠LON = 180º

180 = (4x + 30) + (8x+ 90)

combine like terms

180 = 12 x + 120

60 = 12x

x = 5

plug x into equations.

∠MON = 8(5) + 90

∠MON = 40 + 90

∠MON = 130º

check work:

∠LOM = 4(5) + 30

∠LOM = 20 + 30

∠LOM = 50

∠LON = ∠LOM + ∠MON

180 = 50 + 130
